I can remember seeing Steven Soderbergh’s sad, romantic, and often times thought provoking science fiction film Solaris on opening weekend at the Arclight in Hollywood back in 2002, and as I recall, I seemed to be one of the only people in that theater who enjoyed what they’d seen. I’m not sure what people were…
A neon art collector seduces a lone drifter into killing her abusive husband. Death Waits For No Man is directed and written by Armin Siljkovic. The movie starts off on a slow burn with the opening sequence failing to suck me in via the usual personalities of those involved on screen. The opening scene alone…
File this one under “IT WOULD NEVER BE MADE TODAY.” Totally awesome and completely irresponsible, the 1984 children’s fantasy action film Cloak & Dagger was a staple item of my HBO-watching youth, and I can remember literally exhausting the family VHS copy after my mom taped it off the movie channel. Directed by Richard Franklin…
To celebrate the 30th Anniversary of Dirty Dancing, Amazon Prime members will be able to stream and download the original Dirty Dancing (1987) and the musical Dirty Dancing (2017) in the UK and Ireland from the 27th August 2017. And if that’s not enough for you, we’ve got the rest of your bank holiday weekend…
A Brilliant Monster is a study into the stressful depths of the creative mind, the lengths that one goes through for success, and the anxiety to keep on producing while on top. Is it mental instability? Or the pressures of a society built to reward the selfish? This uber low independent movie takes an abstract…
Wind River is masterful, utterly immaculate filmmaking, almost suffocating in its greatness by the time its powerful conclusion unfolds. Written and directed by the extremely talented storyteller Taylor Sheridan, who in the past few years has scripted the one-two punch of Sicario (for Denis Villeneuve) and Hell or High Water (for David Mackenzie); I’m happy…
So, you thought our Chucky coverage for the night was all done and dusted? Oh hell naw! The opening night film at this year’s UK FrightFest in London was of course Cult of Chucky but that’s not all. Right before Cult of Chucky started playing we were treated to a small documentary shot by Krya…
Confined to an asylum for the criminally insane for the past four years, Nica Pierce (Fiona Dourif) is erroneously convinced that she, not Chucky, murdered her entire family. But when her psychiatrist introduces a new therapeutic “tool” to facilitate his patients’ group sessions — an all-too-familiar “Good Guy” doll with an innocently smiling face —…
Steven Soderbergh is back to directing feature films with the recently released Southern-fried heist-comedy Logan Lucky. This is an enjoyable late-summer offering with a busy plot, featuring one narrative strand that could’ve been jettisoned with no overall harm being done to the movie. I’m surprised that this little pisser of a film wasn’t a tad…
Following last year’s poll of the 21st Century’s 100 greatest films, today BBC Culture reveals the 100 greatest comedies ever made following an extensive poll of more than 250 film critics in over 50 countries. Quite a suprising choice for me personally took the top spot. I mean it’s funny but, that funny? Really? I think the jury is still out…
James Cameron’s epic sci-fi film The Abyss is absolutely incredible, a film that has gained in reputation over the years, and one that I really wish I could see on the big-screen some day. The recent news that Cameron is finally beginning to prep this film (not to mention True Lies…) for Blu-ray makes me…
While I was scrolling through the various movie channels and setting my weekly recordings, I noticed that on Tuesday at 3am this week, the EPIX HD movie channel is airing the long-lost cult item The Pursuit of D.B. Cooper. Being a child of the 1980’s, there are more than a few under the radar gems…
Besetment stars Abby Wathen (The Bay) as Amand, a young woman who takes a hotel position in a small town where she ends up fighting for her life. Struggling and desperate for a job, takes a position at a hotel in a small town in Oregon. It’s a creepy, back country kind of town but…
We all loved the days when a teacher would come into a lesson and ask two of the students to wheel the television to the front of the class. However, we only got to enjoy these days towards the end of the term. However, as years have gone by, there is now a tonne of…
1987 was a big year at the movies for me as a seven-year-old. Harry and the Hendersons, The Monster Squad, Three Men and a Baby, The Princess Bride, Adventures in Babysitting, Innerspace, Benji: The Hunted, Empire of the Sun, Project X, Superman IV: The Quest for Peace, The Garbage Pail Kids Movie and Hope &…
